Well I got this 95 Talon TSI FWD Auto. We got it thinking the timing belt tensioner had just failed and bent the intake valves. Well we replaced the had and believe it or not it had rod knock and the block was warped so bad that the brand new oem HG was leaking also. Well I pulled the motor and trans out yesterday. This car will be getting a make over and also this will be my daily but not really until I get rid of my 2000 S10 Blazer. I already have my fun car which is a 97 GST that is still currently getting built. The Talon will be getting a brand new built motor that I had sitting in the garage. Which has forged evo pistons and rods,kiggly springs,BS delete and all arp hardware through out. Well here are the pics I have so far. I will be stripping the engine bay down on Wednesday and pressure washing it and then painting it all black.

Alright well got her all cleaned up and painted yesterday and I might say she cleaned up nicely. I put the fenders and headlights and other misc. stuff back on before it got dark last night. The accessories and stock cams are almost bolted up to the new motor that will be going into the car. Here are the pics that I took yesterday.

Well car is up and running as of last night. Time for clean up of the bay just to get everything organized and in the right place. Here is a pic.

Wow looks much better. Amazing what a little paint will do.

Well V3 full came in today. This will be the first mod to add to the list.
